Opinions on Policy and Politics

Opinion: Developing 920 Park Place Jeopardizes the Community and the Landmarks’ Process ([link removed][UNIQID])
‘1607 Surf Ave. can begin to address the pain of the housing and food instability that many in this community face every day, and offer an economic boost for the neighborhood as well.’

Opinion: Moving Toward Just Land Use and Housing Policies in NYC ([link removed][UNIQID])

Opinion: Domestic Violence Survivors Need Culturally-Sensitive Court Services ([link removed][UNIQID])
